The motion

That the Parliament commends the Royal Mail for continuing its services throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, during extremely challenging times and while under immense pressure; understands that the Royal Mail has played an essential role throughout the pandemic, from helping friends and families stay connected to keeping the country running with the delivery of NHS vaccination letters and COVID-19 test kits; acknowledges that the Royal Mail also plays a key role ahead of every election in the delivery of postal votes, poll cards and communications from candidates, and will likely see an increase in its services for the upcoming 2021 election; praises it for overcoming the difficulties of having to reorganise its operations due to the pandemic, and applauds all Royal Mail employees, who have kept the country connected.
